Letras
[Verse 1]
Late in the evenin'
There is the thievin' and the trickin' and the trappin'
And they ain't actin'
We make it happen
We'll get the guns on anyones and get to clappin'
Even for rappin'
Does it surprise ya?
We'll readjust and reconcile and recognize up
That I'm a writer
Oh yes, I write up
Now open wide and let me put the night inside ya
[Verse 2]
The is the music usually confused with major motion picture
No one descriptor about it, bein' status was with ya
No put on your gut is going, you're wearin' what don't fit ya
You better run, little one, 'cause the rhythm gonna get ya
And when it hits ya, it usually hits somebody wit ya
Make 'em risk a total eclipse, it's time to get richer
Maybe a little time is something fine, they'll go fix ya
Well, she'll love you, but got to remember Talisha
[Verse 3]
The nightlife, the dark side of the city
Gon' be on twenty-four MJ's and beat the family slayers
The nightlife, the dark side of my heart
Where no one really knows you and no one's supposed to
The nightlife, the dark side of my soul
What if somebody probed you, kill 'em up off you
The nightlife, the dark side of the moon
Where the sun is scared to come, give me some
[Verse 4]
Take me where the darkness is still beautiful
Oh, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
[Verse 5]
Give me the night
The night is gonna get ya, I'm gonna get ya
The night is gonna get ya, I'm always gonna get ya
Give me the night
The night is gonna get ya, I'm always gonna get ya
The night is gonna get ya, I'm always gonna get ya
Give me the night
The night is gonna get ya, I'm always gonna get ya
The night is gonna get ya, he's gonna get ya
Give me the night
The night is gonna get ya, I'm always gonna get ya
[Verse 6]
I'll be your lady
Fair-weather friend
I'll be honest
And I'll pretend
I'll act like I love ya
I'll act like I love ya
Ya gotta listen to me now
[Verse 7]
Take me where the darkness is still beautiful
[Verse 8]
I've been runnin' since rock box
I've caught blocks and locked blocks
And robbed rocks and dropped tops
But obviously art, five foot six inch guard
In the flesh, I've been the best
I'll get in your chest and end the mess
In your vest and out your back
Without even gettin' out the 'Lac
I lyin' about how I really handled
That situation about the act
I'll hit back
If your life's the only collateral you got
I'll get back, now get flat
Say a prayer 'cause shorty want this shit back
Sit back, let's chit-chat, it's piss black
But you could still see what I'm sayin'
And heavy is how I'm weighin'
**** love singin' sad songs
About how bad they wanna stay in
Either a whole lotta basketball player
Then make use of some yay then
[Verse 9]
Take me where the darkness is still beautiful
Oh, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
[Verse 10]
Give me the night
The night is gonna get ya, I'm gonna get ya
The night is gonna get ya, I'm always gonna get ya
Give me the night
The night is gonna get ya, I'm always gonna get ya
The night is gonna get ya, I'm always gonna get ya
Give me the night
The night is gonna get ya, I'm always gonna get ya
The night is gonna get ya, he's gonna get ya
Give me the night
The night is gonna get ya, I'm always gonna get ya
[Verse 11]
It's gonna get ya
